What week are you tested for gestational diabetes?

September 19th, 2009 | by admin |
Ashby asked:


I’ll be 23 weeks on Monday and I have an appointment with my OB then. I thought she said I’d have to do the glucose test at that time, but she may have meant later. I wondered when you’re typically tested for gestational diabetes in pregnancy?

Also, I’ve noticed I am so thirsty lately. I know this can be a sign of diabetes. But I wondered if dry mouth/thirst is also just a symptom that some pregnant women deal with (who DON’T have diabetes)?

Thanks!

    28 weeks ( it may just be that you need more water) not anything to do with diabetes. It is a simple test you drink this yucky drink and wait then they take your blood and check the levels.
